Normally we make the trip to Fred Hall Show and write something, well this year we have tried unfortunately it just is not in the cards. We have a Trip to Utah and lots going on at the home front as far as clean up and preventive measures. Any ways i have followed the instagram feed and will say lots of great deals as normal and lots of vendors. 
we will be contacting a few for some Q&A's in the following weeks. Hopefully  to gain some knowledge and tips from each. sorry that we are a little behind and not staying up to date with some things. 

well tight lines and straight shots off to Utah and will be posting this adventure as stated in the last post.

Team offishial business outdoors is off to Utah for a sneak and peak. As i have been to Utah numerous times, however this time will be different.
 Possible hunting and fishing licenses and tags to be involved. As we get ready for this adventure its more than an outdoors adventure. We meaning @Terri_O and the family will be going on our first road trip with the babies. Also looking at a few large properties. 
Utah has lots to offer as well clean fresh air. Listed are a few from Utah's website just to simplify my writing.

Working on the site and changes

As i sit here and type this i have been looking at the forum list and thing that have come and gone. When i say gone i mean Deleted and never to be seen again. Also means change and improvements. Over the years i have tried new things, tried helping others in hopes it would help the site. Some where short, some where dead ends and others well it had its time and place which helped both out.

Scary when you look at something and see it in your eyes as OK, however when someone makes a comment or suggestion and you say WHOA hold up. Then you realize hey maybe a little layout makeover or change up wouldn't so bad. About a year ago i was on a mission to change the site completely. Things where in motion and i even talked a little about it; as well bragged how the site would be changing. Then Nothing, then i lost a little bit of the fire. My person who helps keep this up to date and programming disappeared. No word no nothing, messaged them, emailed them and nothing. Turns out they are OK now, after a major incident that left them paralyzed for a few months and not able to do anything, but recover. The Changes may not be 100% noti...

In the first new post of the Offishial Business Blog, i mentioned about shattering my elbow. Well that changed my hunting days. Soon we will be back at it and doing some other added things.
I have hunted in other states and hunted many species from birds both waterfowl & upland game, deer, bear, elk and pigs, maybe a few other things not popping into my head. For this blog i am going to choose to talk and remissness about SoCal Deer hunting. i will not give exact locations. Please do not ask for them. Realizing i really do not have any pictures you will need to just believe me. From the Cleveland national forest to the desert of Blythe, Big bear and into Idyllwild i have seen some amazing animals.
The first of many adventures as a young adult, not hunting with my elders was Cleveland national forest at about 17 yrs old. A good friend at the time and i decided we where going to get a deer and knew a few spots. Two main issues with this area; number 1 its thick, number 2 lots of traffic and pressure and C they are pretty much nocturnal. now 20 plus years later i am wanting to go scout the area only because of the huge Holy Jim fire. Needless to say i never did shoot ...

Offishial Business and the start
So this site was started as an idea, as most things are. I had started a lure company called PSI lures in 2005 and said i wanted more. The lures which at the time where hot multi jointed, heck even cabals and bass pro copied them. Anyways back to the forum and a little history. When this all started i really knew nothing about a forum page. To the extent that i had i believe 5 blogs that made up 5 sections and a calendar for events, even had login and password. Well it didn't take long with 25 or 30 members to realize it sucked.  i upgraded that after figuring out thru MySpace and some other at the time forums that it was not going to fly. yes i said MySpace. 
Reaching out to some friends i talked to a good friend who does or at least used to do programming. When i asked him his thoughts and he looked at a few sites, well he laughed. Especially when i said i am looking to start minimal money out of pocket, he laughed even harder. A week or so later he called me back and asked for my domain name and credentials. I of course sent them and then i logged in and this is basically what i got. Very surprised and grateful, so this was late 2...
